| Defining a mailbox quota policy has become a principal concern when you wish to increase infrastructure reserves. Placing the responsibility on the user by applying quotas is one of the solutions made possible by the Mailwatcher Quota module. | | | By establishing a management policy through quotas that are flexible and adaptable to the needs of each of your collaborators, you avoid the risks of service interruption following the use of all available disk space. Once the controls are established, you can delegate all communication management to Mailwatcher. The sending of alerts and unlocking procedures will be automatically handled. Lack of Quota managment put at risk: - Server performance (indexer, router - $inbox size)
- Backup systems (time to complete, storage)
- Hardware (hard drives)
- Notes format is not adequate to store very large volume
Issues related to native quota for which MailWatcher Quota has a solution: - Design not applied because of over-quota.
- No control about when and how to apply quota policy ( frequency, hours ).
- single alert message - one level.
- Database in a Domino Cluster can be desynchronized.
- No Incremental backup ( loss of DBID during compact ).
- Compact to release quota dead lock during peak hours
- Can not save email as DRAFT when reaching the quota
Main functionalities: - Apply quota only on Used space
- Apply quota but do not count $Trash folder content ( support soft delete )
- Apply quota but remove Template size ( remove structure size from total )
- Program more than on alert in percentage, control alert frequency ( I18N support )
- Apply even on "replication configuration"
- Apply for Web access or all client leaving messaging onto mail server.
- Release quota without compacting - still making sure the database size will go below the quota
- Do not apply for certain message type
- Block/Release all out going trafic at once for specifics users in two clicks
The "plus": - List databases by 'Template'
- Track user's activity (date of last read/write - by the database owner )
- Log of database size, % of quota, user status
